Dubinsky played well be was tossed for a third man in midway through the 3rd because of the ass-clown that is Purinton. Dubinsky also forechecked the best.

Immonen was a sratch.

Montoya was unreal...what is cool is that you can see his maze and blue chest protector under the jersey...we a big wolverine logo.

Anyway just a little update.

I would probably disagree with everything you just said there, except for the fact that Jarkko was scratched. Dubinsky didn't get tossed because of Purinton he got tossed because he was protecting his teammate from the jackass on Worcester who was pounding Dale while he was down on the ice. Montoya wasn't unreal, he faced 15 shots. No discredit to him of course. Callahan is obviously short but he's not weak. I saw him once check and shove four guys in a row. He was throwing them around. And Dawes does have a scoring touch.

You are entitled to you opinion....or maybe you don't remember what actually happened.

Dale instigated a fight early on...remember the misconduct he got?
The next fight Dale turtled and then when Dubi jumped in, Dale started pounding like the cheapshot artist he is. If it wasn't for Dale's antics, Dubi would not have been ejected.

Montoya was phenomial in goal because 6-7 shots were screen/deflection/odd man breaks. It is very difficult to stay focused with little work and he did that. Plus he made one save right in front of me with his toe on a deflection...absolute beauty.

So what if Callahan checked four people. Did you see he anywhere near the net? I didn't. He was kept to the perimeter all night. He needed to show some strength and drive to the net. Last night he didn't do that...so to me he seemed weak.

As far as Dawes, his missed one-timer, and two chances in the slot where he couldn't handle the puck is enough to me that shows he does not have confidence in his game or his offensive ability now. He threw the body well, but he is meant to be a scorer and he didn't show any of that either.

Perhaps things at ice level are different from where you were sitting.

How can you possibly want Rozsival on the first pair of defense... he absolutely screwed the Rangers out of a chance to come back.
The defensive pairs there look messed up completely. Pock was used to playing with Rachunek, Girardi and Tyutin looks about right, and Ward will probably stick on the 3rd pair, but I wish Renney would bench Rozsival and call up Lampman to take his spot. I'm not saying the pairs you listed won't happen, but to me they aren't right.
The foward lineups look 100% accurate.

As for anyone saying Montoya will be called up, not happening. Valiquette has NHL experience, he's already called up to the team, and he's already praciticing with the team because of it. Montoya is young and will have a very good chance at being the backup for Lundqvist next year.

Saying Callahan is weak is like watching a baseball player in one game and he doesnt have a hit and you say he is a bad hitter. It is unfair to judge him by one game. The last game I saw he had a Hattrick. Would it be fair to say he is gonna be the next Brendan Shanahan because he had a Hattrick? No. You have to see him play more than once to know what he can and cant do. It is wrong to jump to conclusions because of one game

Can we please bring up Montoya already. I know he just got back from injury but I'd rather see him in net then Valiquette who was just horrendous yesterday and looked like he should be playing in the beer league with the Chiefs.

No. Montoya needs to stay down in the minors. He's too young, inexperienced, and would be wasting valuable time for us. Valiquette doesn't need to be back in the minors for experience. He's played in NHL games before, and honestly Montoya wouldn't be smart if we are looking for a playoff run.

I also was at the game, and i do agree with you about Montoya... But, Dawes had a nice game, he had some really nice passes to set up isbister.... He also look good shooting the puck.... On one of the goals i believe his hard shot was deflected by isbister and into the net.... I thought he played a real good game....

How can anyone want to replace Roszival with Lampman is a better question!

And Pöck and Roszival played quite well together when Malik was injured.
